Default can i do better on street tires at 104.9 mph?

this is my best time so far for my new swap.

60'_______2.1
330______5.782
1/8______8.769
mph_____82.83
1000_____11.356
1/4______13.529
mph _____104.96


i want to get the best i can out of it before i do anything to the motor. i don't know if i should get slicks, lsd, or change my suspention setup first.

i don't know if i should get a 22x8, 22x9, or 23x8 slick for my car. right know it makes 205whp and 155tq and probly 10 more hp when its tuned this weekend.

Your 60 is not bad at all for regular street tires. I would def. get a set of slicks 22x8 is all you need. You shouldn't have a problem running high 12's with slicks.
